Enjoy the Scenery, Duwamish River, Seattle, WA

I've been working on a project about the Duwamish River and its troubled waters. Jamie reads a sign at a shipping terminal that was converted into a nature park and habitat for some birds. Space is a luxury in the industrial section of town.

Looking East on Tiger Mountain Summit #3, Issaquah, WA

Jamie and I made a brief foray into the wild Cascade Foothills and made it to the top of the third summit of Tiger Mountain. It was an massively popular trail with patrons including trail runners, countless dogs, tourists, enthusiasts, and locals comfortable enough with the grade to be talking loudly on cell phones. I was more impressed that they had the energy to carry on a conversation than I was annoyed. The best part was definitely the pine trees.

Seward Park, Seattle, WA

Jamie and I went for a walk around Seward Park over the weekend. We kept it to the loop around the peninsula, as the weather was glorious and the views of Lake Washington, the Cascades, and even Rainier were amazing. I was happy to see people out in full force to enjoy this rogue weather. Although we didn't have a chance to get into it before the sun went down, this park contains some old growth and is a great example of what this area would look like had people not settled here. I'd like to go back and explore more of the forest section.

My Model America, Jackson, WY




Gimmick...Trick...Call it what you want. I have a love affair with the tilt shift. Even though I only had it for a few days, the striking difference it creates is enough to refresh my idea of how to make an interesting photograph. This is sort of the beginning of a project exploring the world-turned-miniature through this lens.
